And with regards to Analogue switchoff, there is a big problem in Westminster,Most properties you are not allowed to have outdoor Aerials and satellite dishes, therefore if the westminster franchise was to close, people are going to have no TV!

Even with Tiscali TV or BT Vision, you still need an aerial!

BT wont like it if Virgin Media closes down the franchise as they will loose there tennant!

What if BT takes over the customer base again and upgrades the network themselves, however, they will have to stop selling BT Vision products in these areas for competition reasons.

And is not possible to rebroadcast Digital channels down Analogue signals???
Tiscali tv use IPTV which menas they can get it because they have broadband access i believe bt vision is iptv as well not sure though

No it is not possible the area needs upgrade if no one will fund it then t is gone tv is not a neccessary and since all of uk is havig analogue switched off irign are under no obligation to keep providing it unless they want ot which is coslty for them because the equipment is very old and find spare parts isnt easy now
